The ratio between the digits of the number is 1 : 2 
This information significantly LIMITS the possible values of the 2-digits. In fact, the number must be one of the following: 12, 24, 36 or 48 
So, rather that get all algebraic, the fastest approach is probably just testing the 4 possibilities to see which one satisfies the other information. 

We'll start with 12 
Reverse the digits to get 21 
21 - 12 = 9. No good. The difference is supposed to be 36 

How about 24? 
Reverse the digits to get 42 
42 - 24 = 18. No good. The difference is supposed to be 36 

How about 36? 
Reverse the digits to get 63 
63 - 36= 27. No good. The difference is supposed to be 36 

How about 48? 
Reverse the digits to get 84 
84 - 48= 36. BINGO!! 

What is the difference between the sum and the difference of the digits of the number? 
SUM of digits = 4 + 8 = 12 
DIFFERENCE of digits = 8 - 4 = 4 
So, the difference between the sum and the difference of the digits = 12 - 4 = 8
